Good And Evil Episode 15 Recap
> Good And Evil Recap
Following Princess Xiao Shan’s death at the hands of the Snow Wolf clan, Kong Qi was consumed by profound grief, lamenting that despite their efforts to change history, Xiao Shan’s tragic fate remained unaltered. He chastised himself as a failure and, in a moment of emotional breakdown, accused Qingyunong of believing Lianyi's lies, which he believed led to Xiao Shan's demise. Qingyunong himself expressed deep remorse before Xiao Shan's body, acknowledging his failure to protect her.
He then made a solemn vow, pledging that all future generations of the Green-feathered Birds would stand proudly with the Xiao Family, forging an eternal alliance as allies, family, neighbors, and friends. He promised to stay by Xiao Shan's side, guarding her tomb day and night. Chun Yao then produced a Snow Lotus, a rare artifact found in the Snow Wolves' den, known for its power to revive the dead.
He presented Kong Qi with a difficult choice: use the lotus to revive the current Xiao Shan or to go back in time and save "Little Mountain," the amnesiac version of Xiao Shan. Kong Qi, recalling Little Mountain's deepest desire to discover her family and origins, made a poignant decision.
He chose to revive the current Xiao Shan, believing that she was meant to be the brave and fearless War God, Xiao Shan, a warrior who belonged to her family and her love. He concluded that the carefree Little Mountain, who had suffered memory loss and had nothing but him, was not her true destiny, and he was merely a fleeting presence in her life.
As Chun Yao and Han Sheng journeyed back, Han Sheng expressed concern about how they would explain leaving Kong Qi with the Xiao clan to Kong Lan. Chun Yao, however, reassured her, stating that Kong Qi and Xiao Shan could visit them, and there was nothing to worry about. They then passed through a human town still vibrant with a Lantern Festival celebration. Han Sheng, captivated by the festive atmosphere, excitedly suggested they release a sky lantern together.
When Chun Yao playfully attempted to read her written wish, she shielded it, believing that wishes wouldn't materialize if revealed. Chun Yao, ever pragmatic, teased her, suggesting she make a wish to him directly, claiming it might be more effective. Han Sheng, however, explained that wishes served as a beacon of hope, a belief that sunshine would follow the rain. She then penned "Chun Han" on the lantern, inviting Chun Yao to share in the wish, finding it more cost-effective.
While Han Sheng closed her eyes in earnest prayer, Chun Yao discreetly used his magic to retrieve her wish, which expressed a heartfelt desire to meet her soulmate and stay with him forever, affirming that she had already found him and only death could separate them. Upon their return to Hundred Spirits Lake, Chun Yao successfully used the divine stone to recast the mirror’s surface.
However, the mirror still required the Five-colored Lotus as its base, and its full bloom remained an unknown. Kong Lan arrived shortly thereafter, bringing news that he had been unable to find the heart blood of the Red-feathered Merfolk, a crucial component for the mirror's base to suppress evil spirits. He explained that all Red-feathered Merfolk had vanished from the lake, perhaps getting lost during a 'night of all spirits' event.
He presented Chun Yao with a dry merfolk scale, which he reluctantly admitted was over 300 years old, rendering it useless for tracking. Chun Yao, frustrated by the lack of progress, questioned Kong Lan’s diligence. Kong Lan, flustered, confessed that his wife, Wu Shang, was displeased that Chun Yao had left Kong Qi with the Xiao clan without their consent, going so far as to consider burning Chun Yao's bedroom.
Chun Yao firmly stated that Kong Qi was an adult who had the right to make his own choices and that they should respect his decision. Later, Chun Yao discussed with Wu Yin the difficulty of locating the Red-feathered Merfolk, who were known for their powerful abilities and mastery of concealment. While out, Chun Yao observed numerous minor demons engrossed in reading.
He took a book titled "Spirits' Oath of Love," and was amused to find a section that described him as "expressionless and heartless," and fond of saying "Get lost." He immediately realized the author, "Chun Han," was Han Sheng. Han Sheng, meanwhile, was basking in her perceived literary genius, confident that selling her book would bring her immense wealth, freeing her from a life "suffering from that monster."
When confronted, she unapologetically defended her portrayal, stating it was an accurate depiction of his character and a trait admired by "fair ladies." Chun Yao then revealed a profound truth by reading from a historical text: Han Sheng was, in fact, the Goddess Hantan, the ancient deity who had recorded the Destiny Scrolls, solidifying their deep connection from a previous life as Hantan and Immortal Spring Water.
He also pointed out that she had used his priceless, millennia-lasting fragrant ink on her manuscript, which had unfortunately stained her favorite dress, sending her into a panicked rush to clean it. Later, while in a forest, Han Sheng was suddenly assailed by a surge of demonic energy. Chun Yao swiftly intervened, rescuing her from the attack. Wu Yin, upon examining Han Sheng, discovered a peculiar internal force within her.
It originated from Chun Yao's spiritual power but was paradoxically consuming her vital essence. Chun Yao confirmed he had also sensed this anomaly. Wu Yin suggested they seek out a thousand-year-old witch dwelling at the end of the Naidu River in Nan Yuan Country, renowned for her ability to foresee the destinies of all beings across the six realms, hoping she could unravel the mysterious connection between Chun Yao and Han Sheng.
Seeking further insight, Chun Yao paid a visit to the Star Lord of Life, Sima Xingjun, to inquire about Hantan's past. Sima Xingjun became visibly uncomfortable and evasive, initially attempting to dismiss Hantan as merely a fairy who had committed a minor transgression in heaven and was subsequently banished to mortal reincarnation. Chun Yao, sensing a deeper truth, pressed for more information.
Fearing that Chun Yao might recall forgotten memories, Sima Xingjun hastily reiterated that Hantan was merely a fallen fairy of no great importance. However, Chun Yao's intuition told him otherwise; he surmised that Han Sheng's hardships in this life were somehow a direct consequence of his own actions.
Despite his guardedness, Sima Xingjun provided Chun Yao with an assortment of protective artifacts, including a demon-taming stick, a demon-sealing spell, resurrection pills, and quick-acting heart-saving pills, as if anticipating a significant tribulation ahead.
